The causation arguably goes in the other direction too. You can't make money if you're unhealthy at baseline. Nor can you as easily acquire more education or new skills.

Yeah. Which is why I'm personally huge on paying plenty of taxes and having lots of social systems. If someone's time is spent fulfilling basic needs, it will take generations for them to get out of that.
